Working under the Chief Medical Officer, the CNS is responsible for the psychological health of the crew. Like the CMO, the Counselor shall conduct annual examinations and direct a staff of trained psychologists to provide the crew with the ability to seek out counseling regarding all matters. In addition, all related matters and missions shall be coordinated with the consultation of the Counselor. The Counselor may also be called upon by the CO or XO to act as an advisor in volatile situations. As with the Chief Medical Officer, the Counselor has been given the power to relieve the CO of his or her duty if he or she is determined to by mentally unfit. If, however, the Counselor is proven to be incorrect in his or her determination, he or she may be held accountable for placing the ship at unnecessary risk due to the removal of the Commanding Officer.
